Wow, thanks guys! I really thought my IS3 would have stolen the show, this kit was really bad in terms on fitting together, the amount of putty i had to use was insane, well actually it wasn't that much but it covered 30% of the tank lol. You can still see the rear where it doesn't quite fit, plus the paint was so streaky it needed two base coats, two secondary camo coats and i just loaded the brush up for the third camo color to save going back over it a second time which helped but it still needed touched up.
I think base coats need sprayed on from now on. i dunno why but paint has gone downhill over the last year and no amount of shaking and stirring helps. Acrylic from the airgun gives a nice finish and i can use the matt enamels for the other bits and bobs.
